He responds to ongoing controversy about remarks by Rep. Ilhan Omar.
President Donald Trump has “no moral authority“ to talk about 9/11, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler said Sunday.
“He stole $150,000 from some small businessperson who could have used it to help rehabilitate himself. And that's why we appropriated it, why I got Congress to appropriate that money,” Nadler said on “State of the Union” on CNN. “To use it for his own small business of 40 Wall Street, he has no moral authority to be talking about 9/11 at all.”Nadler was referencing how Trump‘s company accepted post-9/11 funding for a building that had not sustained any damage.
Trump targeted Ilhan Omar last week for comments she made about discrimination of Muslim Americans after 9/11. Conservative pundits latched on to one portion of Omar’s comments — in which she referred to the attacks by saying that “somebody did something“ — to argue that Omar was minimizing tremendous human loss.
